Default Haters everywhere... even at the body shop.

So I drive out for lunch to stop by some body shops for estimates (see here).

While on my ~1.5 hr. drive I am revved at/on by no less than 4 Civic's and one Neon. WTF?!

Then... at the 2nd body shop the estimator asks me this chit!
"Is that a real Type R?"
WTMF?!?!?!?!

After regaining my composure... I gathered my estimate and headed back to work shaking my head.

Yeah, no need to get pissed. Just say something like, "No, actually it's not an ITR, I just put the "TYPE R" stickers on it and painted it Phoenix Yellow." I yeah, I'm also running a 100 shot of NAWZZ, wanna see the bottle."??

when they rev at you, what kind of rev is it?
like a "I wanna race you rev"?

or just a blip?

estimator shouldn't have asked if was a real ITR or not. They can't tell? heckl, I would have said "hrm, unless the dealer is selling fake ITR's i dunno"

or "hrm, I got it from the dealer. I hope it is"

-Aoib0t, who assumes willard bought from a dealer.

I kept my mouth shut after telling him that it was infact a "real one".

Civic's = = stunna wagons on Independence blvd.

I think you're over-reacting - why are you calling these bozos haters? Did they spit on you or diss you? They sound to be just ignorant.

I always answer "NO" when people ask me that question. If they don't know, they don't need to know.

"Is that a real Type R?"

over-reacting yes...

bozo's:
-hate my car?
-hate me?
-hate the fact that I don't wear a visor?
-hate the fact that it looks stock?
-hate the fact that I have no aftermarket parts on the outside of my car?
-hate the fact that I would not race them?
-hate the fact that the car is dirty as hell and bling bling

I guess it is my fault... reacting to the stunna's...

but one would think that a body shop estimator would be a bit more knowledgeable....

Bah. Last time I had #9 pimping, there was some fuggin' moron in a slammed, 'tezzad, yellow-badged GS-R banging off the rev-limiter at me. At a stoplight. I was three cars back, he was four.

Yes, he was wearing a visor

Best part - some dude in a Jeep TJ revved back at him

what is a visor?

is that the thing you wear on your head? or on the car like a windshield sticker thingy that racers use.

-AOib0t, who is not sure what peeps mean by visor in this context.
